Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed has reshuffled his cabinet dropping a former close ally, Defence Minister Lemma Megersa.
Mr Lemma was recently suspended from the ruling party’s executive committee for “failing to discharge his dutiesâ€.
Takele Uma, the mayor of the capital, Addis Ababa, and Attorney General Adanech Abiebie have also been affected by the reshuffle.
Mr Takele has been appointed as mines minister.
There is, however, no indication if Mr Adanech will have a new position.
